Author missing Matins Gospel pericopes across nocturn-readings store
~110 of 355 nocturn-readings files had a patristic homily with no
paired Gospel-pericope text -- the homily discussing a Gospel that was
never itself transcribed into the file. Closed in two waves (the first
pass's source-string regex missed many real cases where the citation
lived only in a header comment or wasn't named at all), each entry
sourced from divinum-officium-reference's own Missale files (following
Sancti/Commune redirects where a feast reuses another's Gospel) and
verified per file rather than assumed -- several candidates turned out
to be genuine Nocturn 2 content or Common-of-saints cross-references
with no proper Gospel of their own, correctly left untouched.

Includes both live-reported gaps: St. Joseph of Cupertino's own Bk. II
Homily 38 (Matt 22:1-14) and the Vigil of St. Matthew's Ambrose homily
(Luke 5:27-32).

TODO.md logs the closed item plus a new, distinct follow-up: a handful
of files with no Nocturn 3 content authored at all (not just an
unpaired Gospel), found along the way.

npm test (2029 passed) and tsc --noEmit both pass.

Sunt nonnúlli qui vitam suam négligunt et, dum transitória áppetunt, dum ætérna vel non
intélligunt, vel intellécta contémnunt, nec dolórem séntiunt, nec habére consílium sciunt;
cumque supérna quæ amisérunt, non consíderant, esse se (heu míseri) in bonis felíces putant.
Nequáquam enim ad veritátis lucem, cui cónditi fúerant, mentis óculos érigunt; nequáquam ad
contemplatiónem pátriæ ætérnæ desidérii áciem tendunt; sed semetípsos in his, ad quæ projécti
sunt, deseréntes, vice pátriæ díligunt exsílium quod patiúntur, et in cæcitáte quam tólerant,
quasi in claritáte lúminis exsúltant.
At contra, electórum mentes, dum transitória cuncta nulla esse conspíciunt, ad quæ sint cónditæ
exquírunt: cumque eórum satisfactióni nihil extra Deum súfficit, ipsa inquisitiónis
exercitatióne fatigáta illórum cogitátio, in Conditóris sui spe et contemplatióne requiéscit,
supérnis intérseri cívibus áppetit; et unusquísque eórum adhuc in mundo córpore pósitus, mente
tamen extra mundum surgit: ærúmnam exsílii, quam tólerat, deplórat, et ad sublímem pátriam
incessántibus se amóris stímulis éxcitat. Cum ergo dolens videt, quam sit ætérnum quod pérdidit,
ínvenit salúbre consílium, temporále hoc despícere quod percúrrit: et quo magis crescit
consílii sciéntia ut peritúra déserat, eo augétur dolor, quod necdum ad mansúra pertíngat.
Intuéndum quoque est, quod nullus dolor mentis sit in actióne præcipitatiónis. Qui enim sine
consíliis vivunt, qui seípsos rerum evéntibus præcípites déserunt, nullo ínterim cogitatiónum
dolóre fatigántur. Nam qui solérter in vitæ consílio figit mentem, caute sese in omni actióne
circumspiciéndo consíderat; et ne ex re quæ ágitur, repentínus finis adversúsque surrípiat,
hunc prius mólliter pósito pede cogitatiónis palpat: pensat, ne ab his quæ agénda sunt,
præpédiat formído; ne in his quæ differénda sunt, præcipitátio impéllat; ne prava per
concupiscéntiam apérto bello súperent; ne recta per inánem glóriam insidiándo supplántent.

Some there are who are careless concerning their true life, greedy of the things which pass
away, but as to the things which are eternal, either understand them not, or, understanding
them, holding them to be but of little moment, feel no sorrow, nor know how to take wise
advice, and, in forgetfulness of the heavenly possessions which they have lost, they deem
themselves (alas, poor wretches) happy in their goods. They lift not up their eyes to the light
of truth for which they were created; no keen desire ever maketh them to cast a longing look
toward the everlasting Fatherland. Leaving alone the chief end for which they were made, they
fix their affections upon the exile which they are enduring, instead of upon their home, and
make merry in the blindness which they are suffering, as though it were glorious day-light.
But, on the other hand, the understandings of the elect, while they apprehend the things which
pass away, perceive them to be indeed nothings, and work towards grasping the true end to which
they were created, and since nothing outside God satisfieth them, their thought, wearied by the
intensity of speculation, findeth rest in the hope for, and the contemplation of, their Maker.
They are fain to take their place among the citizens above, and each one of them, although
still placed in the world as concerns his body, doth yet in heart and mind ascend above the
world. They bemoan the hardships of the exile which they are enduring, and rouse themselves by
the constant pricking of their love, to look to their Fatherland above. When therefore such an
one seeth with grief that by sin he hath lost an eternal inheritance, he findeth this healthy
counsel, to reckon but lightly the things of time through which he is passing, and as the
riper groweth his wise course that he hath chosen, the deeper groweth his sorrow that he hath
not yet attained unto the things which endure.
We must also realise that they who are headlong in their courses feel not sorrow of heart. They
that live without thought, who leave themselves recklessly to the guidance of events, escape
the weariness of thought. He that ordereth his life by prudent consideration looketh carefully
around him before each thing that he doth, and, like a man that, before advancing on an
uncertain way, trieth the ground with his foot, so he taketh thought beforehand, lest some
sudden and evil thing should happen to him; he considereth whether that which he hath a mind to
do is not forbidden to him by caution, whether he be not too hasty about things which were
better put off to another season, lest evil should overcome him by open attack upon his lusts,
or even good undo him by the in-bringing of vain glory.
